Hello all,well im making headway and hope to be among you soon ,being off the bike for a while its taking me around a year thanks to John Campbell getting me jacked with a winter frame to get back to a reasonable fitness got rid of the GRINGO look and now resemble a cyclist Laughing

,was wondering if any1 has attempted the Larkhall Dumfries and back a record held by Patrick Holton rode in the late 60s 121 miles in 5hr 42min or there abouts i attempted this in july 94 with big jacks assistance but failed if anything could go wrong it did that day i finished just over 6 hours "excuses "just wasnt there on the day ,its a ballbreaker passing through part of the leadhills ,however records are made to be broke and Pats still the man Wink

would love to give it another bash or perhaps some young gun put the record on the shelf looking forward to getting back in the Bunch ,cheers JC.
